About Nina R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am flexible when entering your and your pet's home, and my priority is to ensure your cat or dog is as comfortable as possible as I introduce a new variable to their lives. I am respectful of home spaces and strive to maintain clean environments that do not disrupt pets' settings while allowing them ample space, stimulation, and entertainment. I look forward to being in open communication to learn the best plans for your pet and home.
Information Nina R. would like to know about your pet
The more details I know about your pet, the better- please let me know their preferences and fun quirks around toys, food, and habits so I can match their routine as best as possible.
A typical day
Enrichment for animals of all ages is incredibly important! I love taking dogs to local outdoor sites and exploring their routes. I will engage cats and dogs in playtime to get their brains moving but also set aside plenty of time for cuddles if they want.

Perceptive, diligent animal lover!
Pet care experience
Over the past several years - including full-time in 2025 as a freelance petsitter - I have gained comprehensive experience caring for cats, dogs, and the occasional rat or lizard. I am particularly attuned to animal body language, which helps me provide the most affectionate and comfortable care possible for pets. I have a unique passion for senior animals - I owned a senior cat as a college student - but have sat pets ranging from a few months to 20+ years old for friends, family, neighbors, professional clients, and as a cat cafe volunteer. In addition to traditional feeding, cleaning, and walking tasks, I have experience administering ear ointment, oral medication, and diuresis.

Reviews
Nina was very reliable and communicative and clearly won over our cat right away!
Thank you for walking Oyo!
So helpful last minute and great communication!
Nina cares so much that she waited around when I forgot to update information for her to get access to my apartment. Thank you for caring for Roy!
